On Monday, Kolner Haie announced they have agreed to a contract with Andrej Sustr, beginning next season:

Sustr added the following comment:

"In the past few years, I have repeatedly had discussions with the Cologne management and head coach Uwe Krupp, which is why a strong relationship has developed. Because of these conversations, the decision was easy for me and it feels right in my heart. My family and I are very happy to be part of the Kölner Haie. For me, the organization's reputation is one of the best in Europe and I can't wait to meet the team, live in the city of Cologne and above all play in front of such great fans,"

Sustr Leaves North America for the Second Time

After stints with the Tampa Bay Lightning and Anaheim Ducks, the Plzen, Czechia native signed with the Kunlun Red Star of the KHL in the 2019-20 season. He played 2 seasons there before returning to the NHL for another stint with both Tampa Bay and Anaheim.
